Gotta say the older I get, the more I appreciate what he stands for. Especially as we spiral toward a dystopian future where privacy is suspect and surveillance is everywhere, FOSS is the only way to retain control over our digital lives.

While everyone changes the world ever so slightly in their own way, Stallman is one of these individuals that actually affected the entire world through their achievements, changing it for the better. I sincerely hope he continues being there for decades to come. I want to hear him at GNU’s 50th Anniversary!!! Richard, if you’re reading this, I hope you get better. You deserve to live and to promote free software for many more decades!

Hoarders may get piles of money

But they cannot help their neighbors,

That’s not good, hackers, that’s not good!

At our call, hackers, at our call,

We’ll get rid of those dirty licenses

At least the prognosis is good.

If you happen to read this, Mr. Stallman, I wish you you a swift and full recovery. We need more in this world like you. Thank you for all that you have done for the world and your tireless advocacy of Free Software!

RMS! RMS! RMS!

GNU ! GNU! GNU!

leaving a message just because it’s important that stallman knows there are many people wishing him well, and how much respect there’s for him. I kindly invite others to leave a message as well.
